I was listening to c-span this morning and ...
they were discussing the cease fire in Israel and Lebanon. There were many callers who said that they were formerly Republicons, and were now independents or they were repugs thinking of voting for democrats. Most were angry because of the bush policies and some were republicons who were angry because they believed that these callers were all democrats who were lying. Then, a lady called in who said that she was a republicon and that she was angry about these callers who she thought were democrats, she went on to say bush and his party were stupid and arrogant and that she was very worried and that they were going to do better. The main point is that repubicons no that everything is f--ked up and they just don't want to admit it.

1. Yes, I listened to the WJ this AM too. I'm not sure how much
belief we can put in the people who actually call the show. I know some are recruited Pubs who are actually assigned to call on certain subjects.

I WISH I really could believe there were a lot of disgruntled Pubs, but I can't tell.

3. I was thinking that while I was watching....
about the repubs who were recruited it could be done by both sides. But, I really do believe that some are waking up.

2. they will do better?
They've had 6 yrs to make things better but they've fucked everything!! Why would anyone expect them to do anything better now?

Good post though........thanks for filling us in on the general mood in the country. It's nice to know the London terror scare didn't change anything.
